Purchased at Kiminoi's tasting event.
Freshly squeezed and full of freshness 😄.
Pairs well with the Nagaoka ginger soy sauce flavored hot pot we had that day👍👍👍
Bought on the Shu*Kura train, drinking while I pack to go to Fukushima.
Rice on the nose. Juicy and easy to drink! This is a Yamahai and you can tell in the slight gamey aftertaste it has.
Autumn Dyed with Niigata Sake (6)
This autumn, we are holding a campaign on our own initiative to dye ourselves in Niigata sake.
6) Kimi no I Yamahai Junmai Ginjo
This one was also purchased at the Niigata Sake no Jinjin in Abeno Harukas.
It was the only sake I bought on my first visit.
Tasting it, I found it to be my favorite💘.
I was wondering whether I should buy the unfiltered nama sake or the standard hi-ire sake, and decided on the unfiltered nama sake because it is not often available: ☝️
I will have it cold.
It has a light greenish flavor.
The top aroma is mild raisins, rice cake, cypress, nuts, and cheese-like aroma.
Mild mouthfeel.
The juicy flavor with plenty of raisin aroma is followed by the sourness of Yamahai. The juicy sweetness of the rice is relaxed on the tongue, and the cheese-like lactic acidity stays there, while the bitter bitterness opens up from the raisins and finishes off the taste.
It is different from the image of Niigata sake,
I was completely captivated by this elegant Yamahai with a raisiny sweet and sour youthfulness.
It is a rich mellow style with a sweet and sour taste, but it has a very beautiful aftertaste 😊.
One more bottle and I will make it last.
Now what will the last one be?
Hey, Mr. Aladdin🤭.
A gift from a customer of my parents' house
When I went back to my parents' house, my father, who usually drinks potato shochu, said, "I got a bottle of sake, let's drink it. How nice!
It has a rich but good aftertaste with the acidity of Yamahai and goes well with a meal! Delicious! There was another bottle, so I took that home with me too 🍶🍶✨.
This is a good sake.
Strong is a good word to describe it.
It has a strong aroma and taste. But there is no sake-like taste at all.
It's good.
I bought it at a local liquor store.
I was told that the number of stores that carry it is limited.
Nice to meet you, Mr. Kawasan. 🙇♂️
Kimi no I is located in Niigata and has that atmosphere, yet is a robust sake, which I adore.
I will be looking forward to working with you in the future 😊.
Yamahai Junmai
Slightly dry, slightly strong aroma (dairy), slightly strong attack, crisp, sharp, slightly lacking in thickness, rich acidity, somewhat simple, crisp though it is Yamahai, almost a mellow sake with a refreshing taste
